Recruit (1/7)

  1. Ah, you think you have a chance. That's cute.
  2. No, probably not. Long term, Id take any one of Loyola, Detroit, Cleveland State, or UIC to be traditionally at the top of the horizon after they settle into what they'll be post-butler. of course, that's all before the new additions which ive heard rumors of belmont, oakland, and evansville
  3. With the 6 wins away from home, #14 Butler is 4th in the country Marquette - neutral North Carolina - neutral Indiana - "neutral" Northwestern - away Vanderbilt - away St Joseph's - away ------------------------- Luck? Really?
  4. If Butler wins a game in which they are favored in tomorrow, they will have 6 road games remaining all season long. Butler had a very difficult schedule, it becomes one of the easier in the league if they are 2-0 with 14 games left and wins at St Joes and Dayton behind them.
  5. Clarke's two considerations were Oklahoma and Butler.
  6. Probably because the NY Post has been contradicted on nearly everything they have added to this whole discussion. I'm sure that they are incorrect once again. There's 0% chance of George Mason getting an invite before VCU and VCU isn't even likely. (They are the geniuses that randomly inserted Duquense a couple weeks ago) Given all that is out there, I'd be shocked if its anything other than Xavier, Butler, Creighton, St Louis, Dayton if they go to 12 immediately. (There still seems to be a strong pull for 10 or at least starting there though, in places)
  7. Source on one of the Butler boards is saying the league will be 10 teams, with SLU, XU, and BU joining. The announcement will come fairly shortly. I can't recall this person ever having false info
  8. Now that Butler has moved to 19 in this week's poll, that means every year since 05/06, barring last season, they've been in the Top 25. That along with playing for a 5th Sweet 16 in a decade this year, having the winningest coach in D1 history over 5+ years, and averaging >22 wins per year for 20 years probably contributes.
  9. No, they are not. The article from ZagsBlog came from Philadelphia insider sources. (ie independently verified). I'm sorry, I didn't realize this was still news. Its been all over Twitter.
  10. Two independent sources have indicated that Xavier and Butler are the targets. Everyone else comes after. There is no confusion over who is getting invites, only how big. If its 9, its over. http://zagsblog.com/articles/big-priest-schools-cut-ties-with-big-east/ http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/12/13/report-butler-and-xavier-to-join-the-catholic-7/
  11. The Catholic thing was never the central theme to this thing, but people are going record on it already anyway. From yesterday.... @Aaron_Bracy Villanova AD Nicastro says new conference will not be limited to Catholic schools. #philahoops #bigeast #catholic7 ----Butler and Xavier, then a third is evidently the most likely. But 12 is still possible, as is staying with 9.
  12. Correct, and SLU is looking pretty good. Honestly, Dayton looks screwed. They appear to be behind Creighton too
  13. Its been known over a year that Xavier and Butler would be the targets if this ever happened. For the rest, its hoping you are #3 or its a 12-team config
  14. Worthington named Butler in his list and they can't take him, I posted because it could be relevant. I'm sorry for whatever has you feeling so butt hurt today
